Blank Pages in Word

[SijoZ]

For double sided printing i would like to be able to add blank pages that DO
NO include headers, footers or page numbers and do not disrupt the numbering.
ie.;
page1 - page2 - page3 - blank - page4 - page 5 - blank - page 6 . . .

This is to accomodate new sections, chapters and such to start on a right
facing page.

You will need to insert section breaks and then turn off the Same as
Previous setting to disconnect the headers/footers for those pages you want
to be blank. You will also need to then copy the header/footer information
to the next section where they are again wanted.

This article provides some useful tips for how to work with document
sections in Word:

Although Herb has told you how to do this, note that this is entirely
contrary to convention, and Word will fight you all the way. The
conventional approach would be to use Odd Page section breaks, which will
insert a completely blank even page as needed (that is, when a section ends
on an odd page), but pages will be paginated continuously (as readers would
expect). In the example you gave, you would have:

Page 1, page 2, page 3, (blank page 4), page 5, page 6, page 7 (no blank
needed after 6 because 7 is an odd page).

If what you really want is pages that are blank on both sides and don't
interrupt the numbering, it would be easier just to insert blank sheets
after printing.

I took him literally (1, 2, 3, blank, 4...), and yes... the approach I gave
will cause struggle, but can accomplish it the stated aim.

Of course, if he really does want the conventional approach, odd page page
breaks are a lot simpler, automatic, and lower maintenance.
